    DataRepublican is about to get doxxed hard. And if they are true to their handle, it won’t take long

      The article already details her name - that was out for a while now and is not a secret.

      This is absolutely going to kick off a lot more active doxxing and pwning - as well it should.

    It would be a shame if we crowdsourced the same idea to track them with “publicly available information”

        They would certainly try. Something like that would have to be decentralized to make it far.

    We’re not far off from The Smith Act making a comeback. That “we’re going to arrest people who attended a meeting once” stuff is in living memory. The US has never lived up to its stated ideals.

    Since they can’t differentiate AI slop and reality, they’re going to make more shit up.

    To be clear, this is a personal project of the employee. Not a government project that the employee built.

      But it’s 100% getting latched onto by the fascists, and I would be shocked if Kash or Hegseth or whoever doesn’t try to bring it in-house.

      Yeah, but states and feds have always been tracking left wing groups. The FBI has files on tens of thousands of people associated with leftist groups and have been surveiling them for decades. It’s only news because this one person is publicly doing it.

        They fired most of the IRS employees so they couldn’t keep up on audits. Who’s going to come after them?

          Taxes for poor people are easy for computers to audit. Rich people need to be audited by humans, hence why they fired all the IRS employees

    So they’re easier to find and donate to?

    Can we get a list of services members of the DSA offer that we can use? An anti-boycott or “Socialist Club” where socialists support businesses owned by Socialist?
